How can I incorporate self-esteem into a biology lesson?

I need to formulate a lesson plan for a high school biology course that incorporates self-esteem in some way. I wanted to possibly include some of the physiology involved with low/high self-esteem, but all of the resources I've come across focus on other aspects of self-esteem. Does anyone have any ideas for the lesson or resources I could refer to? Thanks!
 
Self-esteem is defined in evolutionary psychology as the conviction within an individual that said individual will have sex with another particularly selected individual of the opposite sex. This is a definition from evolutionary psychology (and evolutionary biology) which, by the way, can be quantified as this conviction turns into a real event.

Of course, you won't teach your kids that; you will probably go ahead and teach them some BS meaningless story about self-esteem that comes from those self-help books instead of the truth.
